KEEP YOUR HORSE IN THE PICTURE. Although not well-known, Leptospira interrogans serovar Pomona can cause devastating problems. L. pomona can colonize in the kidneys, be shed in the urine and the horse can become septicemic, which can potentially lead to abortion, uveitis and acute renal failure. LEPTO EQ INNOVATOR® is the fi rst Leptospira vaccine developed specifi cally for horses to help prevent leptospirosis caused by L. pomona. It also helps prevent infections of the blood, which could, but has not been demonstrated to, help reduce the potential risk of equine recurrent uveitis, abortion or acute renal failure caused by L. pomona.* An ef cacy trial demonstrated LEPTO EQ INNOVATOR safely helps prevent L. pomona infections and urinary shedding. 1 A safety trial showed it was 99.8% reaction-free. 2,3 To learn more, visit LEPTOEQINNOVATOR.com. *Currently, there are no vaccines available with USDA-licensed label claims against equine abortions, uveitis or acute renal failure due to L. pomona. 1 Data on fi le, Study Report No. B850R-US-12-011, Zoetis Inc. 2 Data on fi le, Study Report No. B951R-US-13-043, Zoetis Inc. 3 Data on fi le, Study Report No. B951R-US-13-046, Zoetis Inc.
